Exploring the Depths of ‘For Such a Time as This’.

By Sylvia Winfield

“For such a time as this” is a spiritually stirring song that resonates with themes of divine calling, courage, and faith in the face of adversity. Drawing inspiration from the biblical story of Esther, the song beautifully intertwines historical narrative with contemporary Christian faith, emphasizing the timeless relevance of God’s intervention in human affairs.

The song opens with a powerful declaration that believers are born for significant times, especially when evil rises and God’s intervention is most needed. The lyrics underscore the importance of prayer and fasting, highlighting God’s continuous pouring out of His Spirit upon the earth, akin to rivers of revival and transformation.

The chorus introduces the concept of the ‘ekklesia’ – a term used in the New Testament for the assembly or church of Christ. It is a call for the church to be cleansed, taught, and prepared to co-rule with Christ, echoing the Lord’s Prayer for God’s kingdom to come and His will to be done on earth.

The second verse narrates the story of Esther, her preparation with oils, her humility, and God’s favor upon her – all leading to her courageous stand to save her people. This narrative exemplifies the importance of being prepared and willing to act in accordance with God’s plan, even in the face of great risk.

The bridge and the final chorus celebrate the victory and restoration that come from trusting in God. It’s a reminder that God turns sorrow into joy and mourning into celebration for those who are faithful.

Overall, “For Such a Time as This” is a call to believers to recognize their divine purpose and to act courageously and faithfully in God’s plan. The song serves as an encouragement to trust in God’s timing and to be active participants in His divine narrative, much like Esther in her time. The song is an uplifting reminder that God uses individuals to accomplish His purposes and to bring about His kingdom on earth.

Devotional

For Such a Time as This

Scripture: Esther 4:14 – “For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?”

Reflection:

In the heart of the Book of Esther, we find a profound message of divine calling and courageous action. Esther, a young Jewish woman, finds herself in a position of influence as queen during a critical moment in her people’s history. The pivotal point of her story – and our focus today – is understanding that God places us in specific situations for a reason. Like Esther, we may be in our current positions “for such a time as this.”

Application:

  1. Recognizing Divine Placement: Look around at your life – your job, your community, your church. Consider how God might be using you in these areas. Sometimes, we are placed in positions not for our benefit but to be a blessing or a voice for others.
  2. The Courage to Act: Esther’s story is marked by bravery. Facing a potential death sentence, she still chooses to act for the salvation of her people. Today, ask yourself – what is God calling you to do? It might not be as dramatic as Esther’s call, but it requires the same courage to step out in faith.
  3. The Power of Prayer and Fasting: Before taking action, Esther calls for a period of fasting and prayer. When faced with difficult decisions or daunting tasks, turn first to God for guidance and strength.
  4. Embracing God’s Timing: Esther’s story unfolds in God’s perfect timing. It’s a reminder that our moments of action, our “such a time as this,” are often divinely orchestrated. Trust in His timing, even when it doesn’t align with your expectations.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for placing me in my current circumstances. Help me to see my life through the lens of Your divine purpose. Grant me the courage of Esther to stand up for what is right and to act according to Your will. May I always turn to You in prayer and fasting, seeking Your guidance in every step I take. Help me to trust in Your timing and to be ready to act when my “such a time as this” arrives. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Lyrics

For such a time as this

by Sylvia Winfield

Verse 1:

For we were born for such a time as this
When evil rises, God delivers.
His call to fast and pray has filled the earth,
He pours His Spirit out, like rivers.

He’s at work to prepare us to serve.
Since days of old he calls us to trust and obey.
On those who stand with Him, His favour rests.
His plan is good. My spirit don’t dismay.

Chorus:

God is building an ekklesia
May we be worthy to rule with Him
Cleanse our hearts and teach us to decree
Your Kingdom come, your will be done.

Verse 2:

Esther was cleansed 6 months with oil of myrrh,
Then followed balsam oil for healing,
She was not proud but willing to obey
God gave her favour, strength and wisdom.

When faced with evil overcoming her people,
Remaining silent was too much for her to bear
With prayer and courage she went before the King
To intercede and call for mercy

Chorus:

God is building an ekklesia
May we be worthy to rule with Him
Cleanse our hearts and teach us to decree
Your Kingdom come, your will be done.

Bridge:

When God gives us rest from our enemies
He turns our sorrow into joy
And our mourning into feasting and gladness
We feast rememb’ring what the Lord has done.

Chorus:

God is building an Ekklesia
May the righteous rule and the people rejoice
May we always seek the good of God’s people
In awe of God, let’s raise our voice.
